Hi Guys,

Just like to thank you. Got a M.E.T. ticket 2 weeks ago, used the template letter in the sticky at the top of this section. Got a letter from met today cancelling the charge.

I hate them with all my being. Some people, especially older people and people who are more vulnerable than us, would have paid up without a whimper and that's how these scumbags prosper. It should in my opinion be illegal and our beloved government (Corrupt !!!!!! they are as well) should put a stop to these con artists immediately:mad:

Sorry, I'll get off me soap box now.

Once again, thank you :T :money:

    You would have had an easy win anyway ..


    I beat Met at POPLA for this location only a month or so ago. They did not even bother to offer POPLA any evidence.

    Perhaps suggesting they recognise they have no lawful locus to issue and enforce such spurious charges.

    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

  • Ring the McDonald's manager first. He said he'd cancel mine.
